Been going back and forth about his departure. Yes I feel angry that he wouldn't fight for his spot as regista. That he didn't love the red and black colours enough to stay. That he didn't have the humility to go out on loan or allow a buy-back option.

On the other hand maybe he didn't feel trusted when F&M were shopping for a regista in Paredes and Badelj and were ready to sell him to Sassuolo. Then maybe he was encouraged when Leo started to push out Montolivo and Gattuso used him for the USA friendlies. But in the maybe end he was frightened that Bakayoko was not only an option for Kessie but also would push him down the ladder in the CDM position.

Had a lot of hope that he would be the new Albertini. Shame to see it all go down the toilet. Grazie Loca for the memories, but now he's left I hope he does not do well.
